The seed
The chapter title (Lords of All Creation) is a villain-self-quote — the chapter’s title-line is the fishman doctrine in raw form.
Why this matters
First on-page racial-self-narration by fishmen in the series. The doctrine is a hierarchical-superiority claim, not a taxonomic-distinction claim. Three structural axes:
- Evolutionary-superiority axis — fishmen are humans-plus, not a separate race.
- Cosmic-supremacism axis — fishmen are lords of all creation, not just strong individuals.
- Biological-determinism axis — fighting a fishman is fighting nature itself.
The doctrine predates Hody Jones by ~500 chapters. The chapter installs the propaganda that:
- Hody Jones (Ch. 631+) inherits at maximum-intensity, deploys via drug-enhancement to compensate for the strength-tier inversion that nullifies the evolutionary-superiority claim.
- Otohime opposes via the coexistence movement (Ch. 621+ flashback).
- Jinbe opposes via the anti-supremacist diplomacy (Sun Pirates → Warlords path).
- Vander Decken / Hammond / New Fish-Man Pirates inherit at the supremacist-conquest tier.
Forward-payoff: the Fish-Man Island saga (Ch. 603+) reveals the historical truth — fishmen and merfolk are a separate-and-coequal race that has been enslaved by humans. The Ch. 71 evolved-humans self-theory is propaganda-in-the-act-of-formation — Arlong’s crew is internalizing the supremacist inversion as a response to the historical demotion. The chapter installs the propaganda that the saga’s resolution will name as propaganda.
